A Long Time Ago, Rome and Carthage fought over Sicily and resulted into the first Punic War.

The Second Punic War

Wait where is my shield?

And so, Rome and Carthage fought the first Punic War. These wars were naval battles and Rome weren´t used to fighting at sea, so they beefed up their ships and soon they had hundreds. And just like that, Rome won the first war. But Carthage wasn´t done yet.

The Third Punic War

Now, they both wanted Spain. A general named Hannibal took over for Carthage. But he made one minor mistake. He took giant elephants into cold harsh weather and they all ended up dying!

The Third Punic War and Conclusion

Over Here!

3-0!

Yay!!

And in the end the Romans won again and gained part of Spain. The Romans also made the Carthaginians pay huge fines. but yet again Carthage was still fighting.

In the third Punic War it was total domination from here. Rome burned down their city-state, enslaved and killed their citizens, and poured salt on the ground so nothing could grow.

Very True.

What a beautiful sight.

In the end, the Romans won all three of the Punic Wars. They also took control of Carthage! But you still have to give Carthage a standing ovation for fighting even if they lost. They never gave up until they end.
